How's what possible

Shutting yourself down emotionally?

Basically it was refreshing

You can just numb your feelings

But now my leg hurt again, it's better than ever though

Yes, you can.

But you can't totally shut them down

Yeah I do that a lot

You can.

I've done this for years lmao.

You just don't recognise them

Hm

Less that and more

I feel it

But I bury it.

Same

I've said this a few times. I put my emotions in mental jars.

Throw away the jar

Forget it ever existed

Oof

I still have jars

So say you have a shelf FULL of those jars @Vostroyan Guardsman

But they're jars

How do you shut down your emotions?

Sweep the jars off the shelf and shatter them.

🤷

Lucky

I can't make that visual

Cause seeing things break makes me emotional

So I just ignore the feels

Ignoring catches up.

But I mostly dwell in them, figure out what's wrong and take the next emotion wave to surf

I'm a feels kid

Did I mention I am emo?

It's why I am "cold" sometimes, that's usually a good sign that I stopped caring for the day. 🤷

Oof I wish I could do that

Usually that type of feeling goes into a mix of rage and apathy

Boxed in mental sarcasm to feel less "in their shoes"

I used my coldness as my later stage of rage

Anger is an emotion I avoid.

Now I wrote it, it doesn't make sense
